Aliases
Summary Contains the Aliases collection object associated with the
specified NetworkVariable object. The Aliases collection
contains a collection of Alias objects, each one representing
an alias used by the network variable. If the network
variable is not using any aliases, the collection will be empty.
If you try to access this property from a
NetworkVariable
object that is not associated with a device (for example, a
NetworkVariable object fetched from a DeviceTemplate
object), a LCA, #38 LCA_APP_DEVICE_REQUIRED
exception will be generated.
However, if you read the
Aliases property from a
NetworkVariable object whose parent AppDevice object was
defined while in engineered mode (a DeviceTemplate was
provided when the AppDevice was added), a valid Aliases
collection object will be returned.
